EDITOR TO THE EDITOR / WHO’S HIDING WHAT ?
Roger C. Kostmayer
US Senators Collins and Grassley, and most Republican senators, say they don’t understand why Dr. Christine Ford (Judge Kavanaugh’s accuser) and all Democratic senators want an FBI background investigation of the alleged attempted rape and sexual assault, before holding a final hearing.
The short answer is based on precedent, common sense and fairness, and the fact that the Senate’s “advise and consent” function is, essentially, a job interview for a powerful lifetime job. A full nonpartisan background investigation, conducted by experts, would not take long and it would provide a fact based context for both the Senate Committee and the American people. Corroborating witnesses and statements give evidentiary support and a basis for judging credibility. After an FBI investigation, like the one so enthusiastically endorsed by Senators Grassley and Hatch in the strangely similar 1991 Judge Thomas/ Anita Hill hearings, a public hearing should be scheduled.
The questions both citizens and senators ask in “he said, she said’ confrontations usually include: What are witnesses hiding and what are their motives?; Who is for and who is against transparency, lie detector tests and a thorough investigation that could either confirm or condemn. Though it’s not dispositive, only Dr. Ford has initiated, taken and passed a lie detector test; named witnesses; and demanded a rigorous investigation.
A prompt background investigation that produces a shared set of facts is required before confirming a candidate for a lifetime position that requires absolute truthfulness, integrity, nonpartisanship, fairness, and impartiality.

Wow. What a coincidence. Ford is a far left liberal, Hillary lover from California. Hmmmm no connection there wi t.f h her memory returning after 35 years right before judge gets appointed. What a joke.
Its all feeling like “Guilty Until Proven Innocent” The accuser has a responsibility to step forward and provide evidence to back up the claim. It is irresponsible for an accuser to throw a turd in the punchbowl then walk away and not step up. The biggest tragedy is that the Democratics are using this woman as a political ambush and have now succeeded in ruining two peoples lives.
DNC delay and obstruction tactics at their best/worst~!
Women are being used under the guise of fairness, morality and integrity.
It’s all about reproductive rights at the expense of society and even the very existence of our civilization.
Where is the DNC outrage on this case?
Hypocrisy knows no bounds~!

I agree with the comments from Bill and Paul. And; this woman should claim responsibility for the turd that she tossed. Passing a polygraph is easy to do if she she is carrying around what is defined as \”false memory syndrome\” . Or just plain \”false memories\”. Her therapist should be educated enough to recognize this for what it actually is. You can teach your subconscious mind to believe anything you want it to, then merrily go through life pointing fingers and others.
Spare me the crocodile tears~! Such bias would be laughable if it wasn’t so pathetic.
